Ok, last summer me and a bunch of mates got into Final Destination when we were 14. (The film was a 15). Now we're all 15. We went to the cinema about a month ago to try and watch Zombieland (15). Got asked to prove ID.. We are all 15 but we just didn't think we would have to bring ID. The cinema has changed managers and such though. What kind of ID should I bring if I want to get in? It seems a bit stupid bringing my passport tbh.. I really don't think I have anything else that proves my ID (Bar birth certificate). Any ideas? :)
 
Passport & driving licence are the only two widely accepted forms of ID in the UK

Birth certificate doesn't mean a thing to a bouncer, fact!

Nice..

Lol, my parents hardly trust me with a tenner. Let alone my passport! (Which I don't look 15 on as the picture is from when I was like 12) I can't even remember if they have DOB on it?
 
when i was a kid in school i got a 'Young Scot Card' that was valid ID for pretty much everywhere, is there not an equivalent down south?

And yes, passport pictures are all old. And yes, of course they have a DOB on them.
 
You don't, you just book a film of the correct age and "accidentaly go into the wrong room".

Oh by the way Birth Certificate does not count as ID.

No they don't. Immigration just tend to guess your age when you enter a country.

/facepalm

Does the card read..

"I'm scottish and I will headbutt you if you don't let me in" on it?

You can imagine the shock on the bouncer's face when my cousin produced his Norwegian passport, on a night out.

Birth certificate would be pretty funny. If you are going down that route, don't forget to pay with stamps... legal tender in the UK. FACT.

Of course it has your date of birth on it! Thats why its a form of identification

This.

Last weekend me and some mates went to the cinema and tried to get the student discount, I was okay but my friends were unlucky as the guy said he couldn't accept it because it didn't have an expiry date!!

Therefore, we turned around and used the touchscreen computers across the room and got our student discount anyway :p

The end. :p
